The Passing Of Erik Scott

Post by mr.barlow » Sat Oct 12, 2019 3:33 am

I was just notified that Erik Scott passed away today after a valiant battle with cancer.

Being a huge fan of "the blackout era", it would have not been possible without Erik.

Fans can send condolences to his wife Mickie and his family on his FB page.

Erik was a great guy and he and Mickie were perfect soulmates who deeply loved one another.

He will be missed!

Very sad. I corresponded with Erik for a while when I did the STUK interview and for a while afterwards. Always very happy to answer questions and share his experiences. Great musician and really nice guy.

Loved his playing on the "blackout" albums and the tours. Big contributor to the sound. Never had any contact with him so I just say to friends, fans and family, I appreciated his playing and is a part of my personal music enjoyment history - thank you Erik Scott

Sad to hear-fine playing on those early 80's LPs
RIP, MR Scott

Very sad. We were planning to meet up at the Edinburgh Festival. Loved seeing him on the special forces tour. RIP
